You can absolutely be a maintainer -- in fact that would be rather appreciated! If you'd like to add yourself as maintainer for other things please make a PR doing so and we'd be happy for the help :). Not sure if there's official documentation of what the role entails but generally means:
Doesn't mean you're on your own, it's an informal commitment from you as well as marker of who to thank :). Mostly I wanted to say please add yourself or file a PR adding yourself to packages that you're interested/willing to (help) maintain! Thanks! |

Motivation for this change
Mill is a very nice tool for building java and scala projects. It is easier to learn than sbt, maven and gradle for beginners in Scala.
I lack a maintainer. I guess it needs to be one of the main contributors to the nixpkgs or can I put myself in there ? I could be a maintainer on bioinformatic tools and scala tools if you need one, depending a bit on how much work such an effort would require, in addition to skillset. I am more into development than operations.
I have used mill locally for a while on my Nixos 18.03 distribution. It seems to work very well!
